Scotland Yard |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Scotland Yard was the name of the first headquarters of London’s police force when the force was established in 1829. The building got its name because its rear entrance rested on the former site of a palace where visiting Scottish royalty stayed. The headquarters has since been moved. | ||||||
